Circuit City is Closing, Liquidating


I know most of us here on this site probably don't shop there, but what impact other than the obviously painful loss of jobs. How does this bode for the other stores? More and better sales?
Thoughts?

I was in Circuit City last week, amid the liquidation.

The "deals" are lousy, with a no-return policy to boot. The help seems to have come from the outside, as simple questions about the merchandise were beyond them. Despite what I've previously written, the store definitely does not have my recommendation now.
I bought a Squeezebox duet at my local CC's liquidation for 50% off, which was the only really good deal that I saw. They apparently have a liquidator involved that will sell the merchandise elsewhere, so they're not going much past 30% on most popular items.
Again, and yet another epitaph...

"We don' need no stinkin' salespeople..."

Wonder where they'll look for jobs?
